TRAVELING SCHOOL
FOR HOUSEWIVES
G-ermany Has Moving Housekeep
ing Instruction for Farmers'
Daughters.
By W. W. Jermane
Washington, Ma 20The American
consul at Ken], Germany, calls the at
tention of the Washington authorities
to the fact that traveling housekeeping
schools for faimers' daughttis are be
ing established considerable numbers
in various pirts of Germany, and that
public sentiment indorses them buch
schools are already in successful opera
1 ion in Baden, Bavana, Thuiingen and
Hesse, and \lsace Loriaine is getting
ready to take up the work
The inference is that if these schools
are successful in Germany, the-y would
be successful in the Lnited States, and
so the consul's lepoit becomes of in
terest to American educatois
The teachers in these German schools
aie all educated women, graduates of
the best schools of housework, and ha\
passed government examinations \11
expenses in ident to conducting the
schools are paid by the government, but
these, it is said, are comparativelv light
An outfit for a school considts of a cook
ing stove, sen mg utensils, noniugboards,
lions tablecloths, towels and cooking
utensils Tables and chairs are bor
rowed from the vanous -villages, an I the
classes are held in the schoolhouses
Onh twenty girls are allowed in a
class, and the term ends in six weeks
!No gnl is admitted who is under 16
years of age
1 here are practical lessons house
keeping cooking and the selection of
food then lectures on the an ilysis of
food the scientific care of cattle and
poultry, the ultivation of egetables
and the making of butter and cheese
It is proposed to enlarge the curriculum
to include a minor couise in nursing
cooking for the sick, sewing, mending,
etc
The tuition Germanv is so low as
to practically exclude no one The
schools are especially intended to bene
fit remote farming communities not
easily accessible to permanent schools

TWO LIVES LOST IN
FLOODS IN WYOMING
Cheyenne, Wyo, May 20 The
streams of Wyoming are carrying a
larger volume of water down into the
Missouri thru the Platte, Laramie. Big
Horn, Shoshone and other waterways
than at any time the recollection of
the earliest settler
Every stream is out of its banks,
while dry creeks and canyons that have
not contained running water for many
years are torrents Many bridges have
been carried out and most of the fords
are unsafe Some stock has been lost
and hay meadows have been damaged
Two lives have been lost on account
of the high water
Bain falls almost every day on the
watersheds and there appears to be no
immediate prospect of a material de
ciease in the flow of the streams
HUGE TAX THIEVERY
IN SAN FRANCISCO
San Francisco, May 20 The Chron
icle says a scheme which has been in
operation in the tax collector's office
for many months has iust been uncov
ered, by which nearly $1,500,000 in
property has been secured for little
more than $100,000 The victims are
the city's taxpayers, who are charged
wrongly with delinquencies The prof
its have gone to a ring of tax scalpeis,
who were assisted in eveiy possible way
by the alleged defaulting tax collector,
Smith, and his subordinates Records
have been manipulated to keep the
truth from coming out. and many poor
people have had the title to their hom^s
placed in jeopardy, without so much as
knowing that a shortage is charged
against them
